Do I have to uninstall Arma3 and reinstall it ?

Recommended Posts

Hello good people

I am wondering...

With all those public server having problems with maybe a "hacker" or a "virus",

and the fact that I went to those server to play and have the same problems

(flying and dying) .

Does it mean that I have to uninstall and reinstall Arma 3??

All the very best

Ranker...out!!!

verify cache should replace any arma3 files that have been altered... however if there are non-arma3 files present it will ignore them.

How do I verify the cache ?

(do you mean the game's folder or what?)

Can you guide me into it in detail please?

thank you very much

I could explain but I think Steam support explains it better:

Though keep in mind the current hack does not modify your game files. It only modifies game functions in memory, and those are reset every time you restart your game.

Of course, if the server you are playing on isn't restarted, or the players you are playing with haven't restarted, their hacked functions will just modify your game functions again. So you must clean yourself by restarting your game and keeping yourself clean by only playing on clean servers with clean players.
